Looking for rubber stamps source

17 years ago

Does anyone know of a good source for rubber stamps online? I'm looking for some animal stamps and just cannot seem to find place to buy online. I asked over on the paper crafts forum, but it doesn't seem too active and I haven't gotten a reply there.

Susan, what animals are you looking for?

I bought a boxful of stamps through Craig's List recently and there's a Stampin' Up set, don't know if it's supposed to be an Africa set or a Zoo set. I have a zebra, lion (female, not with the big mane), giraffe and elephant. I can't see me ever using these, so if you're interested, let me know.

I used an inexpensive replacement glass globe for a light fixture that would attach to a ceiling with the globe part pointing down. Of course, you have to break the glass to get the hypertufa out. I sprayed the inside with a vegetable spray before packing in my mix, and put the globe inside a plastic sack for safety when I was hitting it with a hammer to break off the glass. You could also use a cheap fish bowl, but it has a flat bottom so your globe won't be as spherical as the light fixture.

Not sure about on-line stamp places, but I'd check e-bay. Good luck with your search

I'd check Michaels Arts and Crafts. I know I've seen large stamps there. Ask someone for help if you're not finding what you want. Or, do it the old fashioned way and cut what you want out of a potato. Or, do they have "blanks" of that rubbery stuff you can cut up your own way? Or, how about a stencil? Or, they have loads of books on how to paint. Or, find or make what you want on the computer, print it the size you want it, and transfer the design to the shirt, then paint with fabric paint. Or, try eBay.

I've been experimenting with stamps myself. I have the Versamark stamp pad (the one that is not a color, but more a watermark) that I use. I have also done some embossing. For that I stamp on a separate piece of paper because the heat from the embossing gun can curl the paper. As far as coloring, I like the dauber duos. With the smaller sponge end I can be more accurate with color. I also have some of the acid free paints, but use those mostly with stencils in my books.

I've seen lots of rubber stamps for sell on Goodwill.com.
It's an auction site like e-bay and numerous times I've seen large lots of rubber stamps and they usually show a picture and describe them.

Thank you, everyone, especially Patty. I went out and ran all over town today and finally found what I needed at a toy store.

I'm glad you found something! I know how frustrating it is to have an idea and just be missing ONE THING to make it happen.
